Lassi is a cooling and refreshing drink to have in the summers. It is a yogurt based drink and very popular in the northern parts of India. Lassis are either sweet or savory.
Strawberry Lassi is a sweet Lassi which is made by churning yogurt along with sugar, strawberry syrup and strawberries.
Note:
1) Make sure the yogurt is not sour.(very important)
2) Water can be added to dilute the Lassi.(I have not added water as I wanted it to be thick)
3) Try to use hand mixer/whisk to churn the lassi as it provides a unique taste and frothy texture when compared to a blender.
Step 1: Ingredients
1) Yogurt / Curd - 1/2 Cup
2) Sugar - 2 Tbsp (as per taste)
3) Chopped Strawberry - 1/4 Cup (frozen or fresh)
4) Strawberry syrup - 1 Tsp
5) Ice cubes
Step 2: Churning the Strawberry Lassi
1) Grind the chopped strawberry with 2 tsp of yogurt into a smooth paste in a blender.
2) In a bowl, add the strawberry paste, remaining yogurt, sugar, strawberry syrup and beat it using a hand mixer.
3) Then add ice cubes and beat it till turns frothy.
4) Pour it in a glass and garnish with some chopped strawberry on top and serve.
